Baby is the size of a(n): Weighs as much as an iPad
Upcoming appts: Virtual appt 11/5. Just had my glucose and passed!
How are you feeling?: I am good. My hips are starting to kill me, so sleep is starting to get worse.
Cravings/Aversions: Craving carbs like I have been this whole pregnancy. Still can't even think about chicken breast.
Rants/Raves/Questions:
GTKY: How did you meet your best friend?: My best friend and I have been friends for 24 years now. We met when we were 10, and both tried out for a softball team. We ended up playing sports together, and then going to HS together. I seriously don't know what I would do without her. She is the one person that REALLY gets me and I can tell anything to. We have like 1 million inside jokes and they never get old.... at least to us. ;-) She has a daughter that is 3 months older than mine. I remember when she told me she was pregnant, my husband was like "Ok, let's get on it!" ;-) The girls are in 1st grade now and go to different schools, but I was so thankful they got to go to the same daycare since they were babies and are little BFF's also. I could go on for days about her because she literally the vodka to my soda and I am so thankful to have someone like her in my life.
Baby is the size of a(n): a bunch of kale or a ping pong paddle
Upcoming appts: mid-November
How are you feeling?: pretty good most of the time. Slightly less congested today than normal, which is awesome
Cravings/Aversions: Still craving fries and OJ and still very disinterested in all things sausage
Rants/Raves/Questions: Raves - Still loving all the movement and seeing how sweet MH is with this baby already. No rants this week
GTKY: How did you meet your best friend?: in our church's nursery when she was about a month old and I was 2 weeks old. We are basically more like sisters than friends and definitely used to fight like sisters when we were little.
Upcoming appts: I have to meet with the gestational diabetes specialist and my MFM on 11/14
How are you feeling?: I'm feeling super pregnant these days. I travel around 2x a month for work, but this last trip (Monday and Tuesday) was pretty rough on my body. I had an important client meeting so I wore slacks that require me to wear 4inch heels and by the time I got home last night, my feet and my back were a mess.
Cravings/Aversions: I'm craving all the carbs and sweets, too. But, alas, I can only have them in moderation now. My lunch was a salad. I imagine some protein and veggie sides will be my dinner. Then I can have a piece of wheat toast for dessert! (sigh)
Rants/Raves/Questions: None this week.
GTKY: How did you meet your best friend?: Technically we met at a block party when we were around 10. His grandparents lived two doors down from my house.
